Activities at Sherwood Court Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Life at Sherwood Court Care Home
Pets at the Palaces
Residents across our services had a delightful time during a special virtual sensory storytelling event, led by Art Historian Jon Sleigh from the Historic Royal Palaces.
Jon took us on a journey to discover some of the more unusual and unexpected inhabitants of the palaces and the Tower of London, sharing fascinating stories about the pets at the palaces.
Whilst enjoying the virtual experience, our residents were treated to hot beverages, delicious biscuits, berries and cakes. It was a truly lovely time for all.
Celebrating the King's Coronation
We had a great time at Sherwood Court celebrating the king's coronation! We enjoyed a fabulous party with music and fun, and feasted on the king's quiche and union jack cake. The kitchen and the team did an amazing job with the buffet lunch. We watched the ceremony on TVs and radios in all the lounges. We joined in the great British tradition with a sing-along and a cup of English tea.
One Fine Day Pantomime
Life at Sherwood Court in always fun filled. Residents asked for a panto as they loved the Christmas one so much, so this afternoon we had North End Productions come and deliver a show. One Fine Day pantomime. We absolutely loved it and it was all about a Blackpool trip which the residents could relate to. Residents engaged in the music that was played and sang along to the summer songs, we can’t wait till the next visit!
Keeping active!
We had so much fun with our parachute games! It is a great way to stay fit and healthy and have some fun with our whole team. We played with balls and music and laughed a lot. Everyone joined in and held a handle on the parachute. After the games, we enjoyed a delicious milkshake and a fruit platter. We felt relaxed and happy. It was a wonderful day!
Celebrating the King's Coronation
We got into the full swing of celebrating the King's coronation this afternoon! We enjoyed a feast of his favourite dishes, including the bean and spinach quiche. Residents decorated the dining rooms with red, white and blue. We watched the coronation ceremony on TV. It was a historic day and we felt proud to be part of it!
The Grace Notes
Here at Sherwood Court we are very lucky to have a wonderful choir, the Grace Notes, that visit three times a year and capture the hearts of the residents with their music and heavenly voices. With songs to meet everyone’s approval, a very fun filled afternoon with dancing and laughter from everyone and so much participation from staff and families. The residents voices were heard all over the home.
